9 Steph is correct because if 7.05 is too low then
the answer will round up to 7.1
10 a Cube is x3, hole is 2x ×
2x × 8 = 2x2.

Since the quadratic graph has a vertical line of symmetry and the y-values for x = 1 and x = 3 are the same, this means that the y-values will be symmetric about x = 2. Hence the y-values will be the same for x = 0 and x = 4, and so on.
5 Points plotted and joined should give a parabola.
6 Line A has a constant in front, so is ‘thinner’ than

Line B has a negative in front, so is ‘upside down’. Line C does not pass through the origin.

8 The answers are 42, – 58. The equation can be factorised as (x – 42)(x + 58) = 0 but it would be
hard to find the factors of 2436. Completing the square works well because x2 + 16x – 2436 = (x + 8)2 – 2500 and you can find the square root of 2500 without a calculator. Completing the square is therefore the better of the two non-calculator methods. The formula could also be used without a calculator because b2 – 4ac = 10 000 so the square root can be taken, but you would have to
work out 162 + 4 2436 in order to get there.

b Each equation is written in the form x2 + ax +
b. You should find that the y-intercept is the value of b. Graph (i) has its y-intercept at (0, –5), graph (ii) has its y-intercept at (0, 8) and graph (iii) has its y-intercept at (0, 0). Note
that the graph (iii)’s equation has no value for b, so b = 0.
c i x = 5 or –1 ii x = –2 or –4 iii x = 0 or 2
d The two x-intercepts have a product of b and add up to –a. This works because the x-intercepts are the answers of the quadratic equations when y = 0.
e The value of x for the turning point is exactly halfway between the values of x for the x-intercepts. By completing the square, you should also be able to see that the x co-
ordinate is the value that makes the brackets zero and the y co-ordinate is the value at the end.

Review questions
1 Choose a suitable sample size and decide
whether to use a random sample or a stratified sample. Make sure that the sample is reliable and unbiased.
Remember that the greater the accuracy required, the larger the sample size needs to be. But the larger the sample size, the higher the cost will be and the time taken. Therefore, the benefit of achieving high accuracy in a sample will always have to be set against the cost of achieving it.

7 BED = 15° (angles at circumference from chord
BD are equal); EBC = 180° – (15° + 38°) = 127°
(angles in a triangle): ADC = 180° – (15° + 38°)
= 127° (angles in a triangle); x = its vertically
opposite angle which equals 360° – (127° + 127°
+ 38°) = 68° (angles in a quadrilateral ). So Lana
is correct, but Lex probably misread his calculator
answer.
8 ∠ABC = 180° – x (angles on a line), ∠AOC = 360°

circumference), reflex ∠AOC = 360° – (360° – 2x)

c Circle theorem 1 states from an arc AB, any
point subtended from the arc on the circumference is half the angle subtended at the centre. So where this arc AB is the diameter, the angle subtended at the centre is 1 straight line and so 180°, the angle at the circumference then is half of 180 which is 90°, a right angle.
10 20°
11 It follows from theorem 1 that wherever point C is
on the circumference, the angle subtended from arc AB at the circumference is always half the angle subtended at the centre. So every possible angle subtended at the circumference from arc AB will have the same angle at the centre and hence the same angle at the circumference. This proves circle theorem 3.

angles at centre double angle at circumference; OCB = 65° – 24° = 41°; x = OCB, isosceles triangle hence x = 41°.
7 OCA = 90° and OBA = 90° as AB and AC are
both tangents to the circle, centre O. This is a pair of opposite angles having the sum of 180°. Since the sum of the angles is 360°, the other pair of angles BC and BOC will add up to 360° – 180° = 180°, so both pairs of opposite angles sum to 180°, hence it is a cyclic quadrilateral.
8 OBA = 90° – x; OAB = 90° – x, angles in an
isosceles triangle. BOA = 180° – (90° – x + 90° –
x) = 180° – (180° – 2x) = 180° – 180° + 2x = 2x

6 For example, the length of the diagonal of the
base is 2 2b c and taking this as the base of
the triangle with the height of the edge, then the hypotenuse is
2 2 2 2 2 2 2( ( ) )a b c a b c
7 It is 44.6°; use triangle XDM where M is the
midpoint of BD; triangle DXB is isosceles, as X is over the point where the diagonals of the base
cross; the length of DB is 656 , the cosine of
the required angle is 0.5 656 ÷ 18.

5 tan-1 0.4040 = 21.987 which is 22 to 2 sf, so tan-1
(–0.4040) is same as tan 180 – 22 = 158.
If you calculate tan-1( –0.4040) on your calculator
it will give –21.987 = –22 (2 sf).
Mel is therefore correct as he has rounded his

The second method is algebra:

Higher Student Book – Answers
Walker takes T hours until overtaken, so T = 6
D;
Cyclist takes T – 1.5 to overtake, so
T – 1.5 = 15
D.
Rearranging gives 15T – 22.5 = 6T, 9T = 22.5, T = 2.5. The third method is a graph:
All methods give the same answer of 11:30 when the cyclist overtakes the walker.

The first number at the top of the answer is the constant term on the top of the original. The coefficient of y at the top of the answer is the negative constant term on the bottom of the original. The coefficient of y at the bottom of the answer is the coefficient of x on the bottom of the original. The constant term on the bottom is negative the coefficient of x on the top of the original.

8 In triangle ABC the midpoint of AB is M and the
midpoint of AC is N
Let AM= x and AN = y, then MN = y – x , AB =

is a multiple of MN and so parallel, MN = 12
